[0.17.3] Notice (error) popup when trying to save game (minor)(File __base__/campaigns/beta/description.json not found)

Post by alessandrouw »

Since the 0.17 update I got this error when trying to save a game (any game, I tried multiple saves)

Notice
File __base__/campaigns/beta/description.json not found

i've added a print screen. This is minor, it doesn't crash the game or prevent saving, but it shows everytime I manually try to save.

Your install contains stale files and directories. Remove the `data/` directory and re-extract/reinstall.

I just tried that, Steam redownloaded 1.1gb. The error persists

It happens to me when loading saves.

It is caused by save games of the old campaign. Delete those games and the error dissappears.

Devs: would be nice if the error only shows when selecting the corrupt saves.

Thanks for the report. This is fixed for the next version of 0.17.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
